@ionescu.liviu,
I don't have time for a full discussion, so here are a few points in reply to your new information. From your questions, I suspect that you think there is a way to be sure of a disk drive's health, but things are not actually so easy.

So, the Seagate HDD is a month old and already at 59% health ?
That seems to be a mis-interpretation by Active Hard Disk Monitor of the Raw Read Error Rate & Seek Error Rate attribute values. Note that the health number from that software is unofficial and is a guess based on the interpretations of that software. As has been discussed before (and over on the Seagate forums), these specific SMART attributes can be difficult to interpret correctly. Notice that the same software is reporting a similar "health" number for your Maxtor drive, due to the same reason.

Next week I'm changing the psu, motherboard and ram with much better and stable ones.
I'm not going to discuss PC troubleshooting, as that is off-topic for this forum.

The other HDD is from another PC, but I have attached the other 2 (personal) here:
Your comments here are confusing, as originally your screenshot showed a Samsung drive; now you are including SMART data from a Maxtor and a WD, but no Samsung drive. Anyway, I see no obvious major problems with those drives (see above for a comment about the likely mis-interpretation by Active Hard Disk Monitor for the Maxtor drive) - there have been a few command timeouts, but until the rest of the PC is known to be OK, these may not be due to drive problems.

Some days ago, MAXTOR's state was critical (active disk monitor) but now seems fine (why?!).
Impossible to answer, without you supplying the SMART data
at the time when Active Hard Disk Monitor showed that status.

The SEAGATE is new and has more problems than my WD HDD (also in active disk monitor).
Actually I believe that this software does not properly understand how to interpret some Seagate (and Maxtor) SMART attributes. This is a known problem with that software - it tries to be helpful by trying to guess how to interpret SMART attribute values, but does not always do this correctly.

1. Are any of the HDDs in danger ? (active disk monitor says yes)
All hard disks are always "in danger" and could fail at any time, without warning! The specific warnings from that software are likely false positives, but if you want to believe that software then that is your choice.

2. I have a LOTS of power ups/downs of my PC (restarting, shutting down etc...). Isn't this affecting my HDDs ?!
This is a more complex question than you know, as there are different types of drive power-down. However in short, right now I do not see obvious signs that the drives have been
significantly affected. Obviously, you need to get your PC fixed, because in the long-term, repeated power-downs do have risks.

3. Can you recommend any other software for testing my HDDs ?
It depends how good
you are at interpreting the results of any test. As I tried to explain before, this is not a simple question, even though inexperienced people often think that there should be a simple answer. Drives can fail (or start to fail) in several different ways. For example, as we see here, interpreting the SMART data from a drive which has not yet reported a Threshold Exceeded event, requires opinion based on previous experience which you don't have, and the
dubious opinion from Active Hard Disk Pro on Seagate/Maxtor drives is not helpful IMHO.
If you want a "simple" answer, try HDDScan but again, it takes time and experience to interpret the results, for anything except an obviously faulty drive. You may also want to read the Wikipedia page on S.M.A.R.T. itself. Other readers may give you further suggestions, but for now I have run out of time!
